New (Multiple) Tower Construction

Kawacatoose First Nation is proposing the construction of 8 telecommunication towers to provide high-speed Internet access to the Kawacatoose First Nation. The towers will be 96 feet tall. Antennas will be mounted at the top of these towers. These antennas will operate in the 5 GHz frequency bands. All of the equipment necessary to operate this facility will be housed in a small equipment cabinet located on-site. These towers may undergo future modifications or the addition/replacement of antennas.
